row will say: "A letter from Rudolph Schnau-
belt, the much-looked for Anarchist and alleged
thrower of the Haymarket bomb has been re-
ceived in CHICAGO, and those who are in posi-

The fugitive denies throwing the bomb,
but ntimates he is sorry he did not
do it, and that he only left because
he knew it was not safe for him here.
He defers any account of his travels until he
can write again, but it is understood BY his
friends here that he was the Pacific coast

then worked his way to Canton thence going to
Sydney. later to Bombay, and finally to Norway

VARIETY OF STATISTICS.

A Valuable Work in Preparation by the Blu
reau of Statistics and Labor.
Washington Special.
The Bureau of Statistics and Labor is at work
simultaneously its second and third annual
reports revising the proofs of the one and col
lecting and arranging the data for the other,
which is expected to follow it in few months
and be ready to lay before Congress at the be-
ginning Of the next session. The special sub
jects of interest in these publications will be
strikes and iockouts the condition of female
labor and the cost of producing and distributing
the great staples.
The history of strikes and lockouts to be re-
viewed extends from the lst of January, 1881, to
the 3lst of December, 1856, thus bridging over
the period since the completion of the Weeks
report the labor disturbances of the census
ycsr 1880. 1t is also considered happy
circumstance that these six years should
cover the remarkable era of industrial
depression between the great boom"
of the year of Garfield's election and the begin
ming of another, for which many commercial
prophets are predicting even s:rsater things.
Commissioner Wright has SO prosecuted his
search in this department that he believes he will
be able to show pretty exactly what are the
relative cost and profits of strike to the persons
who do the striking.
The study of the subject of female labor has
been conducted by special agents, in whom the
Commissioner puts the greatest confidence.
They are reporting not only upon the wages. the
health, the hours, the quantity and character of
the work done by women ETC., but upon the way
working women live the homes they occupy,
their habits and amusements when at leisure,
their expenses for food, clothing and shelter,
their family relations, and the like. 1t is be-
slieved that this will be the most exhaustive
treatise on the topic ever published in the United
States, if not in the world.
The inquiry into the cost of production and
the distribution of products is not an essay in a
new field By any means, similar Investigations
being familiar to students of political economy
The relations of production to consumption,
however, ic country still in process of develop
ment, like our own, are continually changing
What the army of middlemen are doing, how
their number is increasing in quarter and
decreasing in another, and the effect of their
charges upon the total cost of the product when
1t reaches the last pair of hands, are believed to
be questions Of direct interest to the great mass
Of citizens and particularly to the wage-earners,
to whom every saving however small, is of i'm
portance.
After the Both of June, when the money APP
propristed for the purpose at the last session of
Congress becomes available. the bureau will en-.
ter upon q new line of research, namely, into the
statistics of divorce. This will be conducted by
Its own special agents, hut it is expected that
they will receive valuable aid from members of
the Reform League. 30 whose efforts the act of
Congress directing the inquiry was largely due.
